- Non-admin users have read and write access to all databases,
which
- are controlled by validation functions. CouchDB can be
configured to block all
- access to anonymous users.

Technically, to block anonymous users you need to fix admin party (aka
create admin) and set
[require_valid_user](http://docs.couchdb.org/en/1.6.1/config/auth.html#couch_httpd_auth/require_valid_user)
as `true`, so everyone have to auth to send any request to CouchDB.
